Match with High-Quality Mental Health Providers for Your Employee Assistance Program (EAP)
Expand Behavioral Health Service Offerings for Your Employees
Employee Assistance Programs (EAP) have become essential to companies both large and small, as many struggle to absorb increased absenteeism associated with employee mental health or substance abuse issues. These programs support employees who are struggling with mental health, and help prevent damage to staff morale for other employees who may have to take on extra work during coworkers’ absences.
An organization with a strong EAP can anticipate increased innovation, productivity, customer service, and employee satisfaction. When an employee begins to show signs of distress, an EAP provides a way to quickly intervene before a behavioral health issue interferes with the employee’s ability to perform their job.
Companies contribute a significant financial investment toward each employee, so an effective EAP is critical to maintain a healthy workforce. Research shows that companies see a return of $4 for every dollar invested in mental health.
How Telepsychiatry Supports EAPs
Traditional EAPs require employees to travel to a specific location in order to participate in counseling. Not only can traveling be inconvenient and inefficient, but it can also result in the employee experiencing some negative stigma associated with accessing services at a mental health center or clinic. Telepsychiatry saves time, lowers costs, and helps reduce the stress and anxiety of signing up for mental health care services.
FasPsych provides mental health professionals who can address several areas that often present extreme distress to employees, including:
- Marriage and relationship issues
- Grief and loss
- Child care and care of elderly parents
- Work anxiety
- Medical/health care-related issues
- Substance abuse and depression

FasPsych removes the barriers associated with travel and helps remove the stigma of receiving mental health care. Overall, this increases the likelihood that the employee will complete the program.
- Employees receive mental health services in the privacy of their own homes.
- Sessions are done via telephone or video conferencing.
- Providers are fully HIPAA compliant regarding patient privacy.

What Customers Say About FasPsych
Frequently Asked Questions About Mental Health EAPs
A mental health Employee Assistance Program (EAP) is a workplace benefit that provides employees with access to confidential mental health support and counseling services. These programs help employees manage stress, anxiety, depression, and other personal or work-related challenges that may impact their well-being or job performance.
FasPsych specializes in connecting organizations with behavioral and mental health care providers. In some cases, dual-licensed providers can offer clinical assistance to healthcare professionals’ patients via virtual rounding services to alleviate workload, but that must be arranged on request. Our network of licensed psychiatrists, nurse practitioners, and counselors focuses on delivering quality telepsychiatry and mental health services — not legal, financial, or other EAP offerings.
While not all businesses are required to offer mental health care, doing so can greatly benefit your workforce. Providing access to mental health support through an EAP helps reduce absenteeism, improve employee satisfaction, and create a more supportive, productive workplace culture.
While we can partner with any type of business, FasPsych primarily partners with general hospitals and emergency departments, healthcare programs, correctional detention centers, and behavioral health organizations that want to expand access to psychiatric care for their staff or patient populations. We also collaborate with community mental health centers, treatment programs, and integrated care systems.
